A Rainy Day Wedding Too Beautiful For Words | Malorie + Johnny

December 28, 2017

Most brides fret and worry themselves sick worrying about the possibility of rain leading up to their wedding. If you’ve ever planned anything outdoors then you’re familiar with this feeling, right? Malorie + Johnny didn’t seem to mind the rain that settled in just in time for their first look. Of course it wasn’t their first choice, but believe us when we say they handled it like champs, grabbed a couple of clear umbrellas and made the most of the day.

The Sonnet House thoroughly enjoyed working with Malorie and her mother, Susan, throughout the planning process. Pretty early on she hired one of our favorite wedding photographers, J. Woodbery Photography and even with the rain she knocked it out of the park. Ladies, read carefully: You can be willing to take photos in the rain all day long, but if your photographer isn’t game then the day could go south quickly. At one point Jennifer had a garbage bag over her body acting as a poncho to get the shot, and she got it, and it’s amazing.

Each time we peek through their wedding gallery we are reminded of what beautiful souls Malorie + Johnny are. Both of them smiled, giggled, and smooched their way through the big day, never caring whether the rain was falling or not. The floral palette is one of our favorites from this year with Malorie’s bouquet being one of our Best of 2017. If you haven’t taken a chance to follow Corey Daniel Florals on Facebook yet then you are missing out!

Video as well as ceremony and reception music were handled by the talented team at On Site Productions. Chace took requests on the dance floor while Dale manned the camera all day. We cannot wait to be able to share their wedding day video with you guys. Guests had their choice of traditional wedding cake from Magnificent Cakes or banana pudding served in mini mason jars, for dessert.

This is our last blog post of 2017 and what a way to wrap it up! Thank you to all of our couples who chose us this year, and 2018 brides: we hope you bring it because 2017 set the bar really high!
